It's not going to be on here again for another hour! So I won't get to watch it live.
Honestly, the coverage by NBC just stinks.

I didn't get that. Are you watching on NBC or Peacock? Im watching it on Peacock.
That Swedish guy is scary good and very strong.

3rd end, just as the Swedish guy is letting the rock leave his hand, there's the tiniest flick of his wrist. I don't know why, it's just amazing to watch. The other curlers just don't have the same finesse.

That is so stupid. It's live. And that's what we are paying for.
I won't spoil the game, I'll just keep posting about my obsession with the Swedish guy.

Ok. See you later.
Rasmus, the Swedish guy, you can really hear his sweeping. And what an appropriate name he has.

They picked back up in the middle, so I missed a few ends. I'm watching now. live. So annoying that they skipped so much!

The Olympic coverage in Canada is so much better and has been that way for decades. Hundreds of hours and they will show entire live events from start to finish. And they show lots of sports and don’t just focus on the Canadian athletes.

I switch between watching on NBC, CBC and USA Network.
I used to think curling was just a hilariously funny little sport. Then I really watched it and became fascinated with it!
Jimmer, I have always appreciated the Canadian coverage more and agree it is much better.

The US coverage is terrible this year. I don't remember it being this bad.
One thing I've seen consistently is that they will tell you (spoil) who won an event, and then an hour later, they show that event "LIVE". It's ridiculous.
Bummer about the curling tho. Glad they medaled!

Sorry you are having trouble. I watch a lot of stuff on USA Channel. I was watching the men's figure skating and they said we have to start women's hockey so switch over to NBC for the rest and there it was, LOL.

Kappy, I was wondering if any of the other competitions have themes. I haven't heard it mentioned and the music is all over the place for the men.

Dipo, yes, I watch on USA, NBC, CNBC or wherever they are broadcasting at the moment.

Peacock just directs you back to NBC, USA or CNBC. It's dismal.

Kar, my Peacock has an Olympics hub that let's you watch all the different games live as they're happening and let's you watch the ones that have already happened. You don't have that?

I'm watching a replay of the Men's short program in skating. The Japanese guy (who is so good) skated to the music of Stevie Wonder without the vocals. What a fun and unique choice. Something I never would have thought of, but it works so well.
I really enjoyed it and the fancy footwork at times that went with the music,

Grooch, no. I go to Peacock via Xfinity, and choose "watch live" and it only shows me what's on the three channels I listed!
I wonder why? I'll dig around some more.

What's interesting, is that the hub isn't available all the time. I think it's only available when there's a lot of competitions going on.
And men's round Robin curling starts at 1 pm eastern standard time!

Oh, thanks for the heads up on the curling! Unfortunately, I have a med appt then, so maybe I'll see if it's listed so I can record it.

I have "best of curling" listed then. And then US men's not until this evening?

For some reason, I can't post pictures i take with my camera.
So anyway, when I go into peacock, on the left side of the screen is the menu. First is search, then there is "home" and the next one is the Olympic Rings. If I click into that it brings me into the Olympic area. When I'm in there it lists the upcoming events for the day and the times. And I can watch them. There are 4 curling games starting at 1 pm my time today.
I can't think of why you don't have that. I wonder if you can update the app by removing it and then reinstalling it.

The International Olympic Committee said it was begging Ukraine’s skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych to compete without wearing a helmet honoring athletes from his country who were killed during the war with Russia.
